Rates

My consulting rate is $125 per hour. In order to ensure that each of my clients gets the attention they deserve, I require an initial commitment of at least 10 hours when taking on new projects. Large commitments may qualify for discounted rates.

Why I’m Worth It

There are plenty of well-intentioned front-end developers out there, but they often haven’t accumulated the depth and breadth of experience that I bring to the table. More than once, I’ve been called upon to rescue a project initiated by a well-meaning, lower-cost developer who simply didn’t have the skills required for the project. Here are a few things to know about me:

• I am a contributing author to O’Reilly’s jQuery Cookbook.
• I am a regular contributor to JSMag, the magazine for JavaScript professionals.
• I led a front-end team for a social networking site serving more than a million pageviews a day.
• I brought web standards and JavaScript-based interactivity to the site of a major telecom equipment provider.
• I have worked hand-in-hand with server-side developers on complete overhauls of application architecture.
• I have developed complex, cross-browser compatible interactive features that plan for reuse and extensibility.
• I have consulted on templating frameworks that facilitate rapid feature development, reskinning, and reuse.
